Does This Make Me a Bad Person?

Dear Giant Bomb,
 
I said I'd be damned if I ever bought another 360 that wasn't a redesign that fixed all the systems hardware problems. However, today I came across a really sweet deal, or what I perceive to be a really sweet deal. It seems GameStop is selling 360 Elites in some kind of promotion that ends the day after tomorrow. As the clerk explained it to me, how it works is you buy an Elite and get $50 off the sticker price reducing it to $249.99 and get a $50 gift card to use toward your next GameStop purchase. Now I went through 3 360's in 2 years and already have a 120gb hard drive from my previous stint with the 360. I know the Elite comes with one and I don't need 2 of these hard drives.  The clerk told me I could trade my old one in for $50 store credit, which would mean either another $50 off the system, or another $50 to use towards games on my next purchase. In short I could get an Elite that comes with Pure and Lego Batman for $199.99, or $249.99 and then have either $50, or $100 left over to spent on games depending on how I decide to allocate the $50 from the 120gb hard drive trade in. What keeps me from taking advantage of it is what I said about buying another 360 earlier. If I take advantage of this deal does that make me a bad person? Also, is this deal as sweet as I think it is?
 
Yours Truly,
Conflicted
